Visual Manna is all about learning with the visual and kinesthetic learning methods. Our art through the core series is available with hundreds of supplemental art projects and visuals that support core learning. Visual Manna is also about excellence in the visual arts. We have developed a week long comprehensive fine art high school credit. We can come and teach for a week and students can continue on to get AP credit if they choose to do so online. Students can take this course online from Sharon Jeffus. We will mentor students. Cost is $300 for two semesters. We also do mission trips to create beauty at homeless missions and community centers. We have a mission trip scheduled for Israel in May where students will do murals at Ariel University, along with many art and sightseeing opportunities. Families welcome. We also have free art lessons available at http://ourhomeschoolforum.com/author/sharon-jeffus/
